Hey Theresa, ... Did you save that script you used last time and if so can you publish it on the wiki plus a how-to? ... I've been wondering, if Debian's...

I read Popular Science regularly, and I remember, a long time ago I came across an article explaining how to setup free neighborhood wifi (NeighborNode) Heres...
